I get the distinct impression that HN, like Slashdot before it, has aged along w/ its original audience. I suspect most of the readers and submitters are aged mid-30's to late 40's. Which online communities attract the young weirdos these days?
The asian country I live in has very few cases due to lockdowns plus quarantines for visitors. Watching the news in Europe and the US, it is hard for me to get a sense of how bad it is. Do you know many people who have died? Who have gotten seriously ill? Are you afraid? Do you think the response in your own location is too little or too much?
I am aware that Arizona State, U of Illinois, and U Texas launched online MS in CS programs in the last 18 months. Anyone have firsthand experience in those programs and others that they care to share? I myself am in Georgia Tech's OMSCS but am very curious what these other programs are like.
